Alumina-supported Cu(II) efficiently catalyzes selenylation of aryl iodides and aryl bromides by diaryl, dialkyl, and diheteroaryl diselenides in water and PEG-600, respectively, leading to a general route toward synthesis of unsymmetrical diaryl, aryl-alkyl, aryl-heteroaryl, and diheteroaryl selenides. A sequential reaction of bromoiodobenzene with one diaryl/diheteroaryl/dialkyl diselenide in water and another diaryl/diheteroaryl/dialkyl diselenide in PEG-600 in the second step produces unsymmetrical diaryl, diheteroaryl, or aryl-alkyl bis-selanyl benzene. A library of functionalized organo mono- and bis-selenides, including a potent biologically active molecule and a couple of analogues of bioactive selenides, were obtained in high yields by this protocol. The reactions are chemoselective and high yielding. The Cu-Al2O 3 catalyst is recycled for seven runs without any appreciable loss of activity.

A metal-free cleavage of diphenyl disulfide and diphenyl diselenide has been achieved using ionic liquid/triphenyl phosphine (PPh3) and a convenient protocol for the one-pot synthesis of unsymmetrical sulfides and selenides by condensing 'in situ' generated thiolate or selenate anion with alkyl halides has been developed. In addition, 1,4-conjugate addition of the generated thiolate anions to activated alkenes has also been demonstrated. The ionic liquid, 1-methyl-3-pentyl imidazolium bromide, [pmIm]Br plays a crucial role in promoting the course of the reactions and shows superior activity and selectivity compared to other solvents. The [pmIm]Br has been reused for at least five times without appreciable loss of activity.
On the reactivity of indium(III) benzenechalcogenolates (chalcogen = sulfur and selenium) towards organyl halides for the synthesis of organyl phenyl chalcogenides
Peppe, Clovis,Borges De Castro, Lierson
experimental part, p. 678 - 683 (2009/10/30)
The reactivity of indium(III) benzenechalcogenolates (chalcogen = sulfur, selenium) towards organyl halides (organyl = alkyl, allyl, benzyl, acyl) was examined. A practical one-pot method to prepare organyl phenyl chalcogenides indium metal and diphenyl dichalcogenide was found. The coupling is fairly broad in scope and generally works better organyl halides capable to produce stable carbocations.
